How To Receive SMS Online and Grow Your Database

Using Textlocal you can easily receive SMS online on Indian mobile number and build your database. Gather mobile numbers and generate leads by promoting your business on brochures, hoardings, store-front, website, social media or any other marketing channel and ask your prospects to simply text in to your SMS inbox e.g. To get 20% off, SMS OFFER to 9220592205. You can set up your own SMS inbox/address using our catchy keywords and long codes. The ‘receive SMS’ path can also be used to engage with your existing customer base e.g. To receive a call back from support, SMS CALLME to 92205 92205.

Here are 2 great ways to start receiving SMS

Dedicate Long codes

Get your own 10-digit long code (e.g. 92205 92205). Configure multiple inboxes with as many keywords as you like.

Keyword on Shared Long codes

Choose your own business keyword (e.g. MYBIZ) on any of the available shared long codes e.g. 92205 92205.
